Cricket 1902

364 CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. Auu. 21, 1902. THE AUSTRALIANS. THE SECOND GLOUCESTERSHIRE MATCH. THIRTY-FIRST OF THB TOUR. Played at Cheltenham on August 18,19 & 20. Australians won by an innings and 10 runs. Owing to the heavy rain, the Australians remained at their hotel on Monday morning, instead of going to the College Cricket Gronnd, not thinking it possible that the wicket would dry quickly enough to allow of play before lunch. But the ground very quickly dried up, and they were sent for. They won the toss and began batting at twenty-five minutes to two. When twenty-one runs had been scored for the loss of Duff, rain come down so fast that there was no more play until the next morning. Trumper was missed in the slips when he had made eight runs, a mistake which told severely on Gloucestershire. For on ihe next morning on a soft and pretty easy wicket Trumper was in splendid form, and brought his overnight total of 13 to 125. Daring his partnership with Trumble some of the most rapid scoring of the season was seea, 66 runs being put on in twenty-five minute of which Darling claimed 39. At one time, while the two men were together, 23 runs were scored in two overs. Both Darling and Trumper were eventually caught brilliantly in the long field close to the boundary by Champain. Trumper seemed almost to juggle with the bowling in the very best manner of Ranjitsinhji, and some of his strokes can only be described as superb. He was batting for about two hours, and made his 1?6 out of 223. Hill played a good inning*, and later Armstrong hit finely. The entire innings of 312 only lasted for three hours Jessop bowled exceedingly well. Gloucestershire wi h a big total to face, lost Wrathall by a run out, and although Newell, Langdon and Champain played well, half the wickets were down for 124 and the tail c >llapsed. When stumps were drawn nine wickets were down for 147, so that 16 ruos were required to save the follow o i. If these had been obtained Gloucester­ shire might perhaps have escaped defeat. But only five runs were forthcoming. The Gloucestershire second innings was chefly remarkable for the batting of Jessop, who again ehowed the Australians that they had underestimated his powers; unfortuoately for his side he was unwise enough to pick out Darling as a fieldsman on whom to try the exp ?riment of making a short run. He was batting for thirty- eight minute3 for his 43 runs, and showed a lot of judgment in placing the ball. Troup and Board played admirable cricket at the end of the innings and added 59 to the total in five minutes under the hour. A u s t b a l ia n s . V.

Played at The Hague on August 15 and 16. M.C.C. won by 10 wickets. The M.C.C. again won the toss In the course of their innings there was plenty of hard hitting, and the Dutch bowlers were handicapped by missed catches. A t the close of the first day’s play, the Dutchmen had scored 122 for four wickets, against a lotal of 333. The four wickets fell for 41 runs, but C. Feith and Bourlier, in an unparted partnership, added 78. On the next morning Dr. Hulton took three wickets in the first over, allthe batsmen playing on, and although Benkema hit tremendously hard at the end of tne innings, a follow on was necessary. In this Benkema again hit very finely, and Feith also played well. In each of his two innings Benkema hit a ball out of the ground. M.C.C. a n d G ro u n d . C. P. Goodden, run out 35 S. W .

No plav was possible at Leicester on Monday* Hampshire went in first on Tuesday, and Llewellyn played a splendid innings of 74. He received very efficient assistance from Webb and Bowel!, but the tail crumpled up before the bowling of Crawford and Marlow. Thanks chit-fly to a fine not out inniogs of 63 by Whitehead Leicestershire had made 118 for three wickets when stumps were drawn. Macdonald was not out 12. Yesterday morning 24 runs were added before Macdonald was out, having helped Whitehead to put on 110 runs for the fourth wicket. Whitehead, after batting for two hours and a half, was out when within twelve runs of his hundred. Crawford and de Trafford played good cricket, and in the end Leicester-hire was 20 runs ahead. This did not seem of much importance, but Hampshire could do very little against Odell in their second innings, and Leicestershire easily knocked off the 93 runs required to win. H a m p s h ir e .

Played at Birmingham on August 18, 19 and 20. Drawn. No play was possible on Monday or Tuesday. A commencement was made yesterday morning, but after 20 minutes rain came, and it was not until 3.20 that the game was resumed, by which time all chance of playing out the match was cjmpletely gone. Per­ rins, on a queer wicket, made 46 by cricket which under the circumstances was excellent. ES8EX. Russell, b Kinneir ... Buckenham, b Devey. Reeves,cCharleowortn, b Kinneir...................
